To separate naphthalene balls from sodium chloride, simply add water until all the sodium chloride is dissolved. Then either filter, or just pour off the solution, and the naphthalene balls will be left behind. Naphthalene is very insoluble in water, and sodium chloride is very soluble in water.

we can separate naphthalene from salt by sublimation. when we heat naphthalene, it evaporates directly into gas without passing through the liquid state. but salt remains the same.

- Dissolve the mixture in cold water

- Naphtalene is very low soluble

- Filter on filtering paper

- Sodium chloride is now in solution, naphtalene on filter

Naphthalene balls are pretty big. You could put the mixture in a sieve and strain out the salt.

Naphthalene is a greasy aromatic compound, and does not dissolve in water to any great degree. This suggests one quick method of separation.

How can you separate a mixture of naphthalene and ammonium chloride?

One way is to slurry the solid mixture with water. The ammonium chloride will dissolve and the naphthalene will not. Ammonium chloride can then be recovered by evaporating the water solution of it that is formed.

Name the process to separate NaCl from a solution of NaCl and water?

Naphthalene is a sublimate. A sublimate is a substance which changes directly from the solid state to the gaseous state and vice-versa. So, by utilising this property, we can separate the mixture of sodium chloride and naphthalene by heating it. The naphthalene will sublimate and we'll be left with sodium chloride.


How can we separate naphthalene from sand?

One way is to dissolve the ammonium chloride in water, then recover the ammonium chloride by evaporation; the naphthalene will not dissolve in water in any substantial quantity.

How do you separate sand iron filings naphthalene ball and sodium chloride?

Iron filings removed magnetically. Water will dissolve sodium chloride and suspend sand. Sand can be filtered out of the solution, and salt reovered by evaporation of water. Naphthalene can be removed separately if necessary by solution of mixture in alcohol.

How do i Separate naphthalene potassium chloride and sand?

Add warm water to dissolve the KBr which is very soluble. This would become the aqueous layer and would be more dense and thus at the bottom. Add them to a sep funnel and decant. Evaporate the water off and you have the KBr. The remaining fluid in the sep funnel is npahthalene
